this weather sucks. i called off a cruise with tim for this morning because it was supposed to pour. i woke up to blazing hot sun at 7am and now it is overcast. sorry tim, we totally could have pulled it off.

if we don't get to do it earlier than the 30th, the who would be interested in a backroad cruise to oaks on the 30th? (pete/jeff/tim?)

Almost.....lol! I ran four 13.0's at 108mph. I have a new problem....traction! I am spinning all 4 tires off the line. I dropped tire pressure and everything, still couldn't get it to stick. Looks like I need to invest in some new treads.

I spend $1,700 for an Exedy twin and I was running faster 60's on my stock clutch and no tune. Not happy....

Gotta get used to the new clutch. Practice practice. 108 in the evo 10 is mid to low 12s, and I am sure it can go faster.

Thanks Sean. I am finding that out quickly. I never had a clutch that grabs this well. You're right, the power is there, the driver just needs to catch up...

Oh how nice, a stalker! You best get yourself a piece my friend.

On another note, we're set for Oaks meet on the 30th? I'm staying with family in Limerick, so if anyone wants to meet up for a burger at the Sonic, call me up!

Oh no's... Thats some shady ish right there... Do you think you'll have to get the authorities involved?

Weekend was decent. Had a nice day yesterday, breakfast with the outlaws, dinner with my parents. Weather actaully wasn't that bad. Never made it out in the Evo though...

Thats messed up Dan. Def get the law involved.
Picking up some protection for you and the fam wouldn't be a bad idea either.

not a bad weekend for me.

Did a track day @ NJMP on Friday with the z06, lots of fun, hit 149 on the long straight.
weather was awesome. there were tons of fast cars and very fast drivers out.

as usual I has vidz: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WV3ojBm02Q

Monday is kinda sucking... autox this weekend though, woo hoo!

I went last minute. Didn't have the evo again and got out a little later then usual but overall a good night. Once everyone decided to leave it started to pour though for the ride home.

Another crappy weekend in the books. Can't wait for the weather to change to start getting some work done and driving time.

Thought I answered the questions several pages ago? Yes, I'm in on sunday, already registered. I'm in the right class this time..lol. NOVICE BSP. Hopefully, my front rotors will come in so I can run the Girodisc pads. My emergency Autozone pads are such a downgrade from the Axxis pads I had prior!

Good to hear. I didn't see where you had addressed that sorry... We need to get a head count so I know how many dogs to buy...?
